Happy Birthday (Colleen)


I have several cousins on my dad's side that I saw quite a bit when I was young but shortly after entering my teens we did not see much of each other.  I lived in the Midwest and they lived on the East coast or in Florida and sadly we drifted apart.  Fast forward 40 years and I have joyfully reconnected with several of my cousins through Facebook.  This birthday card is for one of those cousins....Colleen.  I always adored Colleen's parents.  My Aunt Pat and Uncle Jimmy were my favorite aunt and Uncle when I was growing up.  Colleen lives in Tennessee now just outside Pigeon Forge and it is her birthday this week so I made her this card.
 
I used the July sketch from Artful Delight:
 


I am also entering this card in Seize the Birthday's Anything Goes Challenge.  You can see all the details HERE.

I hope your week is going well....hang in there it is almost the weekend.  Thank you for stopping by my blog today.
